Man! That sounds like perfect grouse habitat!

As bstout says they keep you out of the rain. They also can be useful to keep warm. Late in the season when it's cold up here in the north I use a heater in mine to stay warm. I have a small Otter sled and I leave that, the blind, a Mr. Heater Buddy and a couple of 1 lb tanks of propane in my vehicle. I can then use the sled to pull my gear to my stand site and hunt longer because I can stay warm. Remember though, if you do this with a TSC blind, you cannot use the large windows because they have a plastic film on them and will not allow ventilation. I have taken one of these windows and cut the plastic film out leaving just the camo netting that I use for this purpose.
